and_o many_o servant_n plant_v a_o vineyard_n in_o a_o certain_a part_n of_o his_o estate_n for_o his_o posterity_n and_o take_v a_o journey_n into_o a_o far_a country_n choose_v one_o of_o his_o

he_o do_v and_o fulfil_v his_o command_n he_o promise_v to_o give_v he_o his_o liberty_n nor_o do_v he_o command_v he_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n more_o and_o so_o go_v into_o a_o far_a country_n after_o than_o that_o that_o servant_n have_v take_v that_o charge_n upon_o he_o he_o do_v whatsoever_o his_o lord_n command_v he_o and_o when_o he_o have_v stake_v the_o vineyard_n and_o find_v it_o to_o be_v full_a of_o weed_n he_o begin_v to_o think_v with_o himself_o say_v i_o have_v do_v what_o my_o lord_n command_v i_o i_o will_v now_o dig_v this_o vineyard_n and_o when_o it_o be_v dig_v it_o will_v be_v more_o beautiful_a and_o the_o weed_n be_v pull_v up_o it_o will_v bring_v forth_o more_o fruit_n and_o not_o be_v choke_v by_o the_o weed_n so_o set_v about_o his_o work_n he_o dig_v it_o and_o pluck_v up_o all_o the_o weed_n that_o be_v in_o it_o and_o by_o that_o mean_v the_o vineyard_n become_v very_o beautiful_a and_o prosperous_a and_o not_o overrun_v and_o choke_v with_o weed_n after_o some_o time_n the_o lord_n of_o the_o vineyard_n come_v and_o go_v into_o the_o vineyard_n and_o when_o he_o see_v that_o it_o be_v handsome_o stake_v and_o dig_v and_o the_o weed_n pluck_v up_o that_o be_v in_o it_o and_o the_o vine_n flourish_v he_o rejoice_v great_o at_o the_o care_n of_o his_o servant_n and_o call_v his_o son_n who_o he_o love_v and_o who_o be_v to_o be_v his_o heir_n and_o his_o friend_n with_o who_o he_o be_v wont_a to_o consult_v he_o tell_v they_o what_o he_o have_v command_v his_o servant_n to_o do_v and_o what_o his_o servant_n have_v do_v more_o and_o they_o immediate_o congratulate_v that_o servant_n that_o he_o have_v receive_v so_o full_a a_o testimony_n from_o his_o lord_n then_o he_o say_v unto_o they_o i_o indeed_o promise_v this_o servant_n his_o liberty_n if_o he_o observe_v the_o command_n which_o i_o give_v he_o and_o he_o observe_v it_o and_o beside_o have_v do_v a_o good_a work_n to_o my_o vineyard_n which_o have_v exceed_o please_v i_o wherefore_o for_o this_o work_n which_o he_o have_v do_v i_o will_v make_v he_o my_o heir_n together_o with_o my_o son_n because_o that_o when_o he_o see_v what_o be_v good_a he_o dissemble_v it_o not_o but_o do_v it_o this_o design_n of_o the_o lord_n both_o his_o son_n and_o his_o friend_n approve_v namely_o that_o this_o servant_n shall_v be_v heir_n together_o with_o his_o son_n not_o long_o after_o this_o the_o master_n of_o the_o family_n call_v together_o his_o friend_n send_v from_o his_o supper_n several_a kind_n of_o food_n to_o that_o servant_n which_o when_o he_o have_v receive_v he_o take_v so_o much_o of_o they_o as_o be_v sufficient_a for_o himself_o and_o divide_v the_o rest_n among_o his_o fellow_n servant_n which_o when_o they_o have_v receive_v they_o rejoice_v and_o wish_v that_o he_o may_v find_v yet_o great_a favour_n with_o his_o lord_n for_o what_o he_o have_v do_v to_o they_o when_o his_o lord_n hear_v all_o these_o thing_n he_o be_v again_o fill_v with_o great_a joy_n and_o call_v again_o his_o friend_n and_o his_o son_n together_o he_o relate_v to_o they_o what_o his_o servant_n have_v do_v with_o the_o meat_n which_o he_o have_v send_v unto_o he_o they_o therefore_o so_o much_o the_o more_o assent_v to_o the_o master_n of_o the_o household_n that_o he_o ought_v to_o make_v that_o servant_n his_o heir_n together_o with_o his_o son_n iii_o i_o say_v unto_o he_o sir_n i_o know_v not_o these_o similitude_n neither_o can_v i_o understand_v they_o unless_o you_o expound_v they_o unto_o i_o i_o will_v say_v he_o expound_v all_o thing_n unto_o thou_o whatsoever_o i_o have_v talk_v with_o thou_o or_o show_v unto_o thou_o keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o thou_o shall_v be_v approve_v and_o shall_v be_v write_v in_o the_o number_n of_o those_o that_o keep_v his_o commandment_n but_o if_o beside_o those_o thing_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v thou_o shall_v add_v some_o good_a

keep_v the_o commandment_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o shall_v add_v to_o they_o these_o station_n thou_o shall_v rejoice_v but_o especial_o if_o thou_o shall_v keep_v they_o according_a to_o my_o

these_o thing_n this_o fast_a shall_v be_v such_o as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v thus_o therefore_o do_v have_v perform_v what_o be_v before_o write_v that_o day_n on_o which_o thou_o fast_o thou_o
